Answer:1 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:1 x 6 = 6

1 + (6) = 7

Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?

x2 + 7x + 6 = 0

If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:

(X + 1 ) (X + 6)

To summarize, since 1 and 6 multiply to 6 and add up 7, you know that the following is true:

x2 + 7x + 6 = (X + 1 ) (X + 6)
